Tension Leveling and Skin Passing in a Galvanizing Line

Demand for galvanized sheet has grown strongly in accordance with increasingly severe requirements of ultimate users for particular characteristics and quality. This demand, coming at a time when the majority of the steel industry’s products are finding fewer outlets, has been able to develop due to the introduction of higher-quality galvanized sheet, with varied coatings, providing precise mechanical characteristics and surface conditions. These products have outlets in the building, domestic appliances, metallic furniture, and automobile industries…

Quality Development in the Production of Strip Products

Middletown, Ohio, USA, had been asked to find a way to roll 3.5% silicon grain-oriented steel down to 0.05 mm for the production of small transformers that would make airborne radar possible. ARMCO’s engineers tried a number of different approaches, all to no avail.

Tadeusz Sendzimir: Inventor Extraordinaire

Tadeusz Sendzimir was born in Lwow (then) Poland in 1894, the eldest of four children and the son of a civil servant. World War I put an end to his formal education, and he fled to China, where he married Barbara Alferieff, of Russian nobility. His first son, Michael, was born; and his first industrial venture, a nail factory, was established there. In the 1930s, Dr. Sendzimir immigrated to the United States, where he resided until his death in 1989 at the age of 95.
